The HWACHEON CUTEX 160 (MC) Horizontal Machining Center is a high-precision CNC lathe designed for demanding turning operations. It supports a maximum turning diameter and length of 11.8 inches, with a max swing over the bed of 21.7 inches and a spindle chuck diameter of 6 inches. The main spindle operates up to 6,000 RPM with a standard power of 10 HP, upgradeable to 15 HP, and accommodates bar diameters up to 1.7 inches. The machine features a turret-style primary tool carrier with up to 12 tools for both turning and rotary operations, with rotary tools running at 5,000 RPM powered by 5 HP. It offers 2-axis standard movement (X and Z) with optional 3-axis configurations, featuring rapid traverse rates of 1,417 inches per minute for enhanced productivity. The CUTEX 160 employs highly rigid LM linear guides on all axes and incorporates an extra-rigid Meehanite cast iron frame with a 45-degree torque rib design to minimize thermal distortion and maintain machining accuracy. The turret indexes rapidly at 0.15 seconds per step with 4,300 kgf clamping force, enabling fast tool changes. Optional programmable tailstock support is available for machining long workpieces. Overall, the CUTEX 160 (MC) combines high-speed spindle performance, robust mechanical design, and versatile tooling to deliver consistent, precise results in horizontal turning applications.
